Sleepy Sun Ribbon Tag Toy

Use some left over material and ribbon to make this sweet toy! This cheerful sun is also a great decoration for your toddler’s room. Or tie it onto a baby gift with matching ribbon to create a cute package decoration.

Step 2:On the bottom third of the fabric face, lightly draw eyelashes and a mouth. This does not have to be perfect - that’s what gives the face character! Stay at least 1-1/2 inches away from the edges.

Step 3:Use a very tight and small zigzag stitch and follow your sketch of the features.

Step 4:Cut three 5 inch pieces of ribbon in each color.

Step 5:Fold ribbons in half and pin to the inside of the sun face at the edge; space about 1-1/2 inches apart. Sew at with a 1/4 inch seam allowance.

Step 6:Place the other piece of fabric on top of the face with right sides together and the ribbon tabs inside. Pin together and sew with a 1/2 inch seam allowance, leaving 2 inches open to turn right-side out.

Step 7:Turn fabric right-side out and fill with poly stuffing.

Step 8:Sew the open seam close to the edge.

TIP 1:Try making this project in a larger size for a cute wall decoration.
